• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 61149 - No requirements type found ?

  The SAP error message "61149 No requirements type found" typically occurs in the context of materials management or production planning when the system is unable to find a valid requirements type for a specific material or situation. This can happen during various processes, such as creating a production order, sales order, or during MRP (Material Requirements Planning) runs.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Requirements Type: The requirements type may not be defined in the system for the specific material or plant.
  Configuration Issues: The configuration settings in the system may not be set up correctly, leading to the absence of a requirements type.
  Material Master Data: The material master record may not have the necessary settings or may be incomplete.
  Plant-Specific Settings: The requirements type may not be assigned to the specific plant or storage location.
  Versioning Issues: If there are multiple versions of the material or if the material is newly created, the requirements type may not have been assigned yet.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Requirements Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings in SAP (Transaction code: SPRO).

  Review Material Master Data:
  
  Use transaction code MM03 to display the material master record.
  Check the relevant views (e.g., MRP view) to ensure that the requirements type is assigned correctly.
  
  
  
  Assign Requirements Type:
  
  If the requirements type is missing, you may need to create or assign a new requirements type to the material or plant.
  This can be done in the configuration settings or directly in the material master.
  
  
  
  Check Plant-Specific Settings:
  
  Ensure that the requirements type is assigned to the specific plant or storage location where the material is being used.
